After years of smaller collectible card game publishers porting their decks to iOS and Android devices, enjoying a relatively Wizard-free reign, Magic: The Gathering swoops in and plucks mobile victory from their hands. On the bright side, we've got a game called Velocirapture. Velocirapture!

I'm taking a few days off early next week to spend some time not typing sentences like this one, so this week's Gaming App of the Day lineup shall serve as a blueprint to my leisure.
